REGION — If your shopping excursions in search of nursery and garden supplies are focused primarily on your nearest big box retailer, discount house or small garden center you might want to reconsider your choice. With all of the above, you are missing out on the experience of your local, homegrown Evergreen Nursery.

Evergreen offers the complete range of possibilities to develop your landscape or garden to its fullest potential. Evergreen Nursery isn’t your everyday, typical garden center (or big box, etc.) that buys in everything they sell. Plants frequently are trucked in from other regions and are grown in greenhouses that are dissimilar from your microclimate.

Evergreen, San Diego’s largest wholesale nursery open to the public, has more than 400 acres in production and each of their retail stores has up to 80 acres of actual growing grounds to peruse. At their drive-through nurseries, your car is your shopping cart. You’ll join professional as well as hobbyist landscapers and gardeners seeking the right palm tree, rose bush, top soil, fruit tree, shade tree, succulents, groundcovers, mulches, bedding plants, flowers, and drought-tolerant plants for their projects.

At Evergreen, the plants you see have been grown and raised on site, assuring you that they will acclimate readily in your local landscape, just like they have at the nursery. Beyond the vast expanse of selection available, Evergreen customers also notice significant savings in product pricing, thanks to the nursery’s on-site growing and selling grounds, which removes the middlemen and handling services that drive prices up. On the property, you have the option of walking around, driving through or receiving home delivery.

As a San Diego staple for more than 30 years you can be assured that Evergreen’s plants are grown with San Diego gardens in mind. Buying direct from the grower has never been easier and you are sure to save on quality products.

Prepare for your visit by perusing the website to see some of our in-season plants, review their blogs (you can learn a lot!) or take a look at the nursery’s extensive maps for each location. When you finally come, you’re sure to shop longer than you think you will, so don’t forget to bring your wide-brimmed garden hat and plenty of room in your car for your selections! Bring the kids and the dogs, we’ll be waiting for you here at Evergreen Nursery. For locations and hours visit www.evergreennursery.com.
